In undulating terrain, under tillage. The cropmark of a bivallate enclosure on visible on an aerial photograph (CUCAP BDL040, 15 July 1970) and on an OS Ortho image (viewed 12 June 2019). Only a portion of the W side of the circular enclosure (int. dims. c. 38m; overall diam. c. 60m), with a gap of c. 12m between the inner and outer fosse, is visible. A later enclosure (KK012-053---) overlies the NE quadrant of this enclosure. It is also bisected by a field boundary running NNE-SSW.
